[Blackpool] Fwd: Natty Schedule Adjustments (Beta 2 added, Release Candidate dropped)

[Les Pounder]

So there's no release candidate for ubuntu 11.04. Not a major issue but I
wonder why they did that, would Easter have that much of an impact on
downloads?

Dear Developers,

After reviewing the plans at the end of this release, it was felt that a
release candidate release on April 21st showing up just before the
easter holiday would be a bit late.

After discussing this with the key stakeholders and not getting any
negative feedback from them or in the weekly release meetings, we're
going to go ahead and add a Beta 2 for this release, and drop the
Release Candidate from the Natty Schedule [1].

Natty Beta 2 will be on April 14th, 2011.

If you anticipate any problems due to this change, please let us know.


Thanks,

Kate Stewart
on behalf of Ubuntu release team
